According to sport1.de, Newcastle United sporting director Ross Wilson recently gave an interview discussing the club's summer transfer activity.

Newcastle United sold Gordon this summer. According to Wilson, this was necessary to free up financial space for further recruitment. Alexander Isak, another striker, joined Juventus on loan, and Tonali also left the club.

Gordon's transfer brought in approximately €81 million for Newcastle United, and with add-ons, this figure could reach up to €88 million. Wilson stated: "We had to complete a deal like Gordon's in this transfer window, or another player of similar scale, but there had to be a corresponding operation of comparable size." Only after this deal was confirmed could the club's financial plans be clarified.

Alexander Isak's loan move paved the way for further recruitment.

Alexander Isak joined Juventus on loan with a fee of approximately €4 million. Wilson revealed that this deal enabled Newcastle United to recruit Fernández-Pardo for approximately €60 million: "The final deal for Fernández-Pardo was only possible because we completed the Alexander Isak deal."

Through this series of operations, Newcastle United managed compliance with UEFA's "squad cost rules," which set limits on club spending for wages and transfers. Newcastle United had previously been fined approximately €6 million by UEFA for breaching this regulation.

CFO Simon Capper stated that Newcastle United is currently compliant, but with limited financial cushion: "All our projections align with compliance, and even with minor deviations, we would remain in compliance."
